Swooning Cinematic Romanticism
This Valentines we step back to 1966 for an evening of swooning cinematic romanticism and 1960s chic of Claude Lelouch’s Academy Award–winning ‘Un Homme et Une Femme, a film that endures as one of the most intoxicating love stories ever told. All set to Francis Lai’s unforgettable score.
A classic menu of French fare takes inspiration from where the film was shot a windswept Deauville on the Normandy coast to Paris and the glamour of Monte Carlo
The love scene was shot in the Hotel Barrière Le Normandy Deauville which, in memory of the film, has a suite entitled "A Man and a Woman" The Hôtel was opened in 1912 by Eugène Cornuché, the former owner of Maxim's restaurant in Paris. Crêpes Suzette was invented at Monte Carlo's Café de Paris.
